The enzyme adenylate cyclase (aa-DEN-uh-late SIK-laze) produces a "cyclic" secondary messenger from this molecule. This molecule is produced by an enzyme with a characteristic "gun barrel" structure, in which an axle-like structure turns and adds a (*) phosphate group to another molecule. Glycolysis (gli-CAHL-uh-sis) results in the net creation of two of these molecules, which are also produced in

Glycolysis (gli-CAHL-uh-sis) results in the net creation of two of these molecules, which are also produced in oxidative phosphorylation (FOS-for-uh-LAY-shun). For 10 points, name this molecule referred to as the "energy currency of the cell."
